Greetings,
I'm running fio-3.26 in client-server mode. I have a job file that
takes size from a shell variable ${FILESIZE}.
If I run the following command from the client (control) node, the
shell variable isn't passed to the servers. On each server in
fiohosts.list the /tmp/myjob.fio contains a config line
size=${FILESIZE}
FILESIZE=100G fio --client=fiohosts.list --remote-config=/tmp/myjob.fio
If I switch from using remote config files to a local config file the
shell variable is honored but the execution of the benchmark is serial
where each host in fiohosts.list runs singularly and in sequence as
opposed to concurrently on each server in fiohosts.list.
FILESIZE=100G fio --client=fiohosts.list /tmp/myjob.fio
End goal being concurrent benchmark operations on the same network
share file from all clients in fiohosts.list
Any pointers are appreciated,
--Jeff
